Most of these folks have been working with eBay for years. In some cases they have teams of people working for them. I used to buy office supplies for one of my businesses and the seller would get bad bulk clear packing tape for pennies on the dollar. A hauling company would reject it for whatever reason. They sold it for 50% of what it was worth new and made a killing. They did similar things for boxes. I never had a problem with anything they sold to me and they always shipped fast.I know another guy who buys and sells tech polos and shirts. He has sold thousands. He buys them at yard sales for $2.50 or $5.00 and sells them for $10-$20 dollars. Eric makes a small amount per year but my guess is that it works for him.One person sells known jewelry on eBay from designers such as Queen Bee. This is quality stuff and the maker is known. There aren t many pieces sold but she can pick it up at yard sales in areas such as Northern Virginia for $10 and sell it for $45. The original prices are usually around $120-$300 for a Queen Bee piece.I knew a guy who sold adult novelties (and had an attorney on retainer) off of eBay. He would get the stuff at a 50% discount and sell it at a 25% discount on retail. He sold thousands of bedside table friends and my guess is made a killing. I was never really interested in the details of his operation but found it interesting that he did that as a day job.It s all about finding things people want to buy, sourcing the things, and selling them with good delivery times.There are a LOT of people doing it
You need to find the right products to sell. They have to be a bit unique, but not so obscure that only a few people will be interested. You need to find a reliable source for the products you sell at a price that allows for profits.
Macy s kids clothes sell really good. I had some clearance items that were never worn.
There is no quick buck. They just follow their passion and money follows them.
right products first such as www.solodiy.com/blogthen need regular clients
